Awesome Agent Skills is a curated repository of over 1,100 agent skills from official development teams and the open-source community, organized for use with Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, OpenCode, and more. Maintained by VoltAgent, the collection explicitly rejects AI-generated filler — everything is hand-picked. The library spans every corner of the modern developer stack: frontend frameworks (React, Next.js, Angular, React Native), cloud platforms (Cloudflare Workers, Netlify, Vercel, Google Cloud), databases (PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, MongoDB, Firebase), infrastructure (Terraform, HashiCorp), CMS (Sanity, WordPress), APIs (Stripe, Composio, Firecrawl), AI/ML (Replicate, Gemini, OpenAI), and design (Figma, Remotion). Skills from Stitch, Remotion, and dozens of official vendor teams are included. As agent-native development becomes the default workflow, having the right skills loaded into your agent is as important as having the right VS Code extensions was in 2020. This is becoming the npm registry of agent capabilities — 18k+ stars and still climbing.

Glassbrain
Time-travel debugging for AI apps — replay any trace, fix in one click

Glassbrain captures the full execution trace of your AI application—every LLM call, retrieval step, tool invocation, and branching decision—and renders it as an interactive visual tree. When something goes wrong, you click the failing node, change the input, and replay from that exact point without redeploying. It's like a time-travel debugger built specifically for non-deterministic AI stacks. What sets it apart from generic observability tools like LangSmith or Langfuse is the one-click fix workflow: Glassbrain doesn't just show you what failed, it surfaces Claude-powered fix proposals that you can copy directly into your code. The diff view shows you before/after so you can verify the suggestion actually improved output quality before shipping. Setup takes two lines of code and works with OpenAI, Anthropic, LangChain, and LlamaIndex out of the box. The free tier covers 1,000 traces/month—enough for a solo developer in early testing. Pro at $39/month jumps to 50,000 traces with unlimited AI suggestions. This launched on Product Hunt today (April 6, 2026) and currently sits at #13 on the daily leaderboard.
Reviewer scorecard
“This is the package registry equivalent for agent skills. Instead of hunting across 30 different repos, everything is here and organized. The fact that official vendor teams like Stripe and Cloudflare are contributing their own skills means quality stays high.”
“Two lines of setup and you can time-travel through your agent's reasoning. The AI-generated fix proposals powered by Claude are the killer feature—not just telling you what broke but showing you how to fix it with a diff. This would have saved me days on my last LangChain project.”
“1,100 skills sounds impressive but quantity isn't quality. Keeping skills current as APIs evolve is a massive maintenance burden — today's Stripe skill becomes tomorrow's broken context blob. Absent a strong contributor community, this risks becoming stale fast.”
“LangSmith, Langfuse, Arize, Traceloop—the AI observability space is already crowded with well-funded players who have months head start. The visual tree is pretty but 'click to replay' only works for deterministic subsets of your trace. LLM calls have temperature; you can't truly replay them, you can only approximate. The value prop needs more precision.”
“The aggregation layer for agent tooling will be enormously valuable. Whoever owns the canonical skills registry wins developer distribution the way npm and pip did before — Awesome Agent Skills has first-mover positioning in a winner-take-most market.”
“The long game here is automated regression testing for AI systems. Once you have traces from every user session, you can build golden datasets, run evals, and detect quality regressions before they ship—automatically. Glassbrain is building the TDD framework for the agentic era.”
“Having Figma and Remotion skills officially in here means designers can plug into agentic workflows without translating their tools into developer language. Exactly the kind of cross-discipline thinking that makes agent tooling accessible beyond pure coders.”
“This is firmly a developer tool—you need to be writing Python or JS and integrating SDKs to use it. There's no no-code path here. If you're using n8n or Make for your AI workflows, Glassbrain won't help you. Worth bookmarking for when it adds visual builder support.”
